Hello,
After an upgrade to RedHat 9 and the supplied
samba-[|commoan-|client-]2.2.7a-8.9.0 rpms we've discovered a problem with
smbmount.
It sometimes invokes itself twice and then hangs.
Sample script to test:
#!/usr/bin/perl
# testing Samba problem
print "$$\n";
`/usr/bin/smbmount //cmc-apps/settlements ./t-samba -o
credentials=/home/mrasmuss/mlrcred,workgroup=FSIUS &`;
print "$? mount \n";
`/usr/bin/smbumount ./t-samba &`;
print "$? presumed good umount \n";
On the first invocation everything works fine. On the second invocation the
smbmount command is seemingly double called as shown by ps:
19081 pts/7 S 0:00 /usr/bin/perl ./tpl
19085 pts/7 S 0:00 /usr/bin/smbmount //cmc-apps/settlements
./t-samba -o credentials /home/mrasmuss/mlrcred workgroup FSIUS
19086 ? S 0:00 /usr/bin/smbmount //cmc-apps/settlements
./t-samba -o credentials /home/mrasmuss/mlrcred workgroup FSIUS
If the script and mounts are all killed I can successfully re-run the script
- after an as yet to be determined timeout time.
Any insights as to what would cause this behavior?
